fsevents dependency prohibits installation on linux

$ npm install d3-sankey-diagram

npm ERR! code EBADPLATFORM

The use of fsevents is unclear and since it was added in conjunction with the addition of prettier, it is probably not needed as a dependency.

I had the same issue installing on Windows.
I was able to use an earlier version (npm install [email protected]) which didn't have this dependency.

Possibly suggest to use the cross-platform library instead of fsevents, called Chokidar - https://github.com/paulmillr/chokidar
